<p>Stress continues to have a major impact in organisations. According to HSE research, the total number of working days lost due to this condition last year was 9.9 million days with stress accounting for 43% of all working days lost due to ill health. Despite this huge impact, CIPD research shows that many organisations are failing to take adequate steps to proactively identify and reduce stress in the workplace and many struggle to recognise and support staff who are already suffering from stress-related symptoms.</p>
<p>This programme has therefore been designed to help HR professionals identify how they can best support their organisation in preventing, reducing and managing stress. It recognises the role that HR can play in helping develop proactive strategies to reduce incidents of work-related stress as well as helping individuals to cope with or recover from stressful situations. It also recognises the important role that HR has in equipping managers with the necessary knowledge, skills and confidence to manage stress within their team appropriately. The workshop provides participants with a wealth of ideas, strategies and tools to use within their organisations. It draws on current research, best practice guidance, lessons from case law and learning from a wide range of organisations in the form of case studies.</p><ul><li>UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF STRESS AT WORK AND THE CAUSES OF WORK-RELATED STRESS</li><li>UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF PROACTIVELY MANAGING STRESS, INCLUDING MINIMISING LEGAL RISK</li><li>KNOW HOW HR CAN BEST SUPPORT THE ORGANISATION AS A WHOLE IN MANAGING STRESS AND, IN PARTICULAR, HOW TO SUPPORT MANAGERS PREVENT AND RESPOND APPROPRIATELY TO STRESS WITHIN THEIR TEAM</li><li>HAVE LEARNT HOW OTHER ORGANISATIONS TACKLE STRESS AND THE RANGE OF SUPPORT AND WIDER TOOLS AND INITIATIVES AVAILABLE</li><li>HAVE REVIEWED HOW THEIR ORGANISATION PREVENTS AND MANAGES STRESS AND HAVE IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT</li></ul><section>

<div id="course-pills-1">Duration<p>5 Days</p><p>30 CPD hours</p>This course is intended for<p>This introductory-level, fast-paced course is for skilled web developers new to React who have prior experienced working HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript.</p>Overview<p>Our engaging instructors and mentors are highly experienced practitioners who bring years of current 'on-the-job' experience into every classroom. Working in a hands-on learning environment, guided by our expert team, attendees will learn about and explore:<br />A basic and advanced understanding of React components<br />An advanced, in-depth knowledge of how React works<br />A complete understanding of using Redux<br />How to build, validate, and populate interactive forms<br />How to use inline styles for perfect looking components<br />How to test React components<br />How to build and use components<br />How to get control of your build process<br />A deep understanding of data-driven modeling with props and state<br />How to use client-side routing for pages in your apps<br />How to debug a React application</p><p>Mastering React is a comprehensive hands-on course that aims to be the single most useful resource on getting up to speed quickly with React.  Geared for more experienced web developers new to React, this course provides students with the core knowledge and hands-on skills they require to build reliable, powerful React apps. After the first few modules, you?ll have a solid understanding of React?s fundamentals and will be able to build a wide array of rich, interactive web apps with the framework. The first module is an introduction to the new functionality in ECMAScript 6 (JavaScript). Client-side routing between pages, managing complex state, and heavy API interaction at scale are also covered. This course consists of two parts.  In the first part of the course students will explore all the fundamentals with a progressive, example-driven approach. You?ll create your first apps, learn how to write components, start handling user interaction, and manage rich forms. We end the first part by exploring the inner workings of Create React App (Facebook?s tool for running React apps), writing automated unit tests, and building a multi-page app that uses client-side routing.  The latter part of the course moves into more advanced concepts that you?ll see used in large, production applications. These concepts explore strategies for data architecture, transport, and management:  Redux is a state management paradigm based on the Flux architecture. Redux provides a structure for large state trees and allows you to decouple user interaction in your app from state changes. GraphQL is a powerful, typed, REST API alternative where the client describes the data it needs. Hooks is the powerful, new way to maintain state and properties with functional components and the future of React according to Facebook.</p></div><div id="course-pills-2"><h4>ES6 Primer (Optional) </h4><ul><li>Prefer const and let over var </li><li>Arrow functions </li><li>Modules </li><li>Object.assign() </li><li>Template literals  </li><li>The spread operator and Rest parameters  </li><li>Enhanced object literals  </li><li>Default arguments </li><li>Destructuring assignments </li></ul><h4>Your first React Web Application </h4><ul><li>Setting up your development environment  </li><li>JavaScript ES6 /ES7  </li><li>Getting started   </li><li>What?s a component?  </li><li>Our first component   </li><li>Building the App   </li><li>Making the App data-driven </li><li>Your app?s first interaction   </li><li>Updating state and immutability </li><li>Refactoring with the Babel plugin transform-class-properties  </li></ul><h4>JSX and the Virtual DOM </h4><ul><li>React Uses a Virtual DOM   </li><li>Why Not Modify the Actual DOM? </li><li>What is a Virtual DOM? </li><li>Virtual DOM Pieces  </li><li>ReactElement  </li><li>JSX  </li><li>JSX Creates Elements  </li><li>JSX Attribute Expressions   </li><li>JSX Conditional Child Expressions </li><li>JSX Boolean Attributes  </li><li>JSX Comments </li><li>JSX Spread Syntax  </li><li>JSX Gotchas  </li><li>JSX Summary </li></ul><h4>Components </h4><ul><li>A time-logging app  </li><li>Getting started </li><li>Breaking the app into components   </li><li>The steps for building React apps from scratch  </li><li>Updating timers </li><li>Deleting timers  </li><li>Adding timing functionality  </li><li>Add start and stop functionality   </li><li>Methodology review</li></ul><h4>Advanced Component Configuration with props, state, and children</h4><ul><li>ReactComponent   </li><li>props are the parameters </li><li>PropTypes </li><li>Default props with getDefaultProps() </li><li>context   </li><li>state </li><li>Stateless Components </li><li>Talking to Children Components with props.children   </li></ul><h4>Forms</h4><ul><li>Forms 101 </li><li>Text Input </li><li>Remote Data </li><li>Async Persistence   </li><li>Redux </li><li>Form Modules   </li></ul><h4>Unit Testing &amp; Jest </h4><ul><li>Writing tests without a framework </li><li>What is Jest? </li><li>Using Jest </li><li>Testing strategies for React applications </li><li>Testing a basic React component with Enzyme   </li><li>Writing tests for the food lookup app   </li><li>Writing FoodSearch.test.js  </li></ul><h4>Routing</h4><ul><li>What?s in a URL?  </li><li>React Router?s core components  </li><li>Building the components of react-router   </li><li>Dynamic routing with React Router   </li><li>Supporting authenticated routes  </li></ul><h4>Intro to Flux and Redux  </h4><ul><li>Why Flux? </li><li>Flux is a Design Pattern  </li><li>Flux implementations </li><li>Redux &amp; Redux?s key ideas </li><li>Building a counter   </li><li>The core of Redux   </li><li>The beginnings of a chat app  </li><li>Building the reducer() </li><li>Subscribing to the store  </li><li>Connecting Redux to React   </li></ul><h4>Intermediate Redux</h4><ul><li>Using createStore() from the redux library  </li><li>Representing messages as objects in state </li><li>Introducing threads  </li><li>Adding the ThreadTabs component </li><li>Supporting threads in the reducer </li><li>Adding the action OPEN_THREAD   </li><li>Breaking up the reducer function </li><li>Adding messagesReducer()  </li><li>Defining the initial state in the reducers </li><li>Using combineReducers() from redux </li></ul><h4>React Hooks </h4><ul><li>Motivation behind Hooks </li><li>How Hooks Map to Component Classes </li><li>Using Hooks Requires react 'next'   </li><li>useState() Hook Example </li><li>useEffect() Hook Example  </li><li>useContext() Hook Example  </li><li>Using Custom Hooks </li></ul><h4>Using Webpack with Create React App  </h4><ul><li>JavaScript modules </li><li>Create React App </li><li>Exploring Create React App  </li><li>Webpack basics  </li><li>Making modifications  </li><li>Hot reloading; Auto-reloading  </li><li>Creating a production build  </li><li>Ejecting   </li><li>Using Create React App with an API server   </li><li>When to use Webpack/Create React App </li></ul><h4>Using GraphQL </h4><ul><li>Your First GraphQL Query   </li><li>GraphQL Benefits   </li><li>GraphQL vs. REST   </li><li>GraphQL vs. SQL </li><li>Relay and GraphQL Frameworks  </li><li>Chapter Preview </li><li>Consuming GraphQL </li><li>Exploring With GraphiQL   </li><li>GraphQL Syntax 101  .   </li><li>Complex Types  </li><li>Exploring a Graph   </li><li>Graph Nodes ; Viewer   </li><li>Graph Connections and Edges </li><li>Mutations </li><li>Subscriptions   </li><li>GraphQL With JavaScript </li><li>GraphQL With React</li></ul></div>
